Girl
Syml Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Perfectly her
Broken and hurt
Soft and asleep in the morning gray
Shake off the night and don't hide your face
The sun lights the world with a single flame
I want you to see this
I want you to see this
Today
And all of your days
I'll wear your pain
Heal what I can in your troubled mind
Sometimes our bodies will hurt for some time
And the beauty in that can be hard to find
I want you to find it
I want you to see this
I want you to see this
So run
Wake up and run
My little one
I wanna tear down these walls that can't hold you inside
And rip out the cords and uncover your eyes
We'll make our escape in the dark of night
I need you to see this
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Girl
You'll see the world
And you'll come to learn
That falling in love is a strange work of art
All of your battles will shape who you are
And know that your scars are my favorite part
I want you to know this

As many of you may already know, this song holds a special place for me. What my daughter has been through in the past year has astonished us all. At such a young age, she’s already shown incredible strength of heart and spirit. With the video for this song, I wanted to capture what it is to be a kid. Young lives are filled with curiosity, tenderness, risk, joy, and sadness. I know it’s easy to look back in our childhood and remember it as “simple”, but I think it’s far from it.
This video was directed by Hayley Young and shot in a beautiful location close to where I live. I’m so proud to share it now.

such a privilege to be able to see this.
when I first heard this song, I knew it was about someone you loved dearly in your own special way. and isn't fatherly love special?
your daughter is lucky to have you as a mentor and a parental figure in her life. you are to teach her the most amazing things.
thank you for sharing, it means an awful lot.
the song is beautiful, sincere, loving, full of light. beyond gorgeous.
